Answer 1

A Word About Clots

A clot looks like a tiny sample of raw liver or raw oyster and often comes out with a heavy menstrual flow. Clots are normal and do not mean you're hemorrhaging. Blood naturally clots, and often when you're sleeping during a heavy period, the blood will collect in clots and expel in the morning. The only time you need to worry about clots is if you're passing them after your period is over, passing them with a prolonged period, passing them midcycle, or passing them while you're pregnant. (Similarly, if you're bleeding at all during these times, you should see a doctor.)

Answer 2

very small blood clots are normal but medium to large ones are often a red flag. it could be endomitriosis. Do you have any other symptoms that don't seem like everyone elses periods? excessive cramps, low fevers( like 99.0), constipation or diahrea, headaches, anything?

Answer 3

If it's something that you've never seen before I'd definatly request setting up an appointment with your gyno. it's better to be safe than sorry.

Answer 4

That can be normal. I've had similar experiences. And, yes, if you are that concerned about this, definitely call your doctor and see what they have to say and what they want you to do about it if anything.
